All, Yesterday, the project I am working on changed for the better. I am required to access Mainframe data and use it to populate a PDF form. The solution I proposed required screen scraping to pull the needed data from the mainframe screens and writing it to a delimited text file where it could then be imported into the form. The IT department has a product in place that they use to expose backend data to PC based applications. This eliminates the need to do the screen scrapes. Instead, I now need to call a COM object and supply a client ID that will be used in a query. The COM object will reply with a string containing the field values that I need to populate the form. I have the Adobe 6.0 SDK, but don't know quite where to start to find out how to call this COM object and then to have it "listen" and accept the string and use it to fill in the PDF fields. If anyone can point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it.
